Abstract
Epithelium ovarian cancer (EOC) is currently the prevalent malignant cancer worldwide. However, there is a lack of efficient biomarkers for EOC screening. Accumulating evidence reveals that serum miRNA detectable in various types of cancer. Therefore, we explore the diagnostic value of combined detection of plasma miR-193a-5p, HE4 and CA125 for EOC. Serum samples were collected from 45 patients with primary EOC, 30 patients with benign ovarian tumor patients and 40 healthy controls. The expression of serum miR-193a-5p was detected by real-time quantitative PCR, and serum HE4 and CA125 were detected by chemiluminescent immunoassay. Moreover, a diagnostic model combining miR-193a-5p, HE4 and CA125 or alone in EOC patients was evaluated by ROC curve analysis. The relative expression quantity (RQ) of serum miR-193a-5p in EOC patients, benign ovarian tumor patients and healthy control groups were 0.419 (0.093, 2.215), 3.667 (1.633, 6.691) and 1.130 (1.000, 7.087), respectively. The RQ of serum miR-193a-5p in EOC patients was significantly lower than that in benign ovarian tumor patients and healthy controls (both P < 0.001), and there was no significant difference between benign ovarian tumor patients and healthy controls (both P > 0.05). There was no significant correlation between serum miR-193-5p, HE4 and CA125 levels (both P > 0.05). Additionally a risk model for miR-193a-5p, HE4 and CA125 was correlated with Grading and Lymph node metastasis (P = 0.016, P = 0.029). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of a risk model for distinguishing EOC patients from healthy individuals was 0.996, which higher than any single biomarker. Combined detection of miR-193-5p, HE4 and CA125 by logistic regression analysis could greatly improved the diagnostic ability of EOC and may prove to be a candidate biomarker, providing new directions for further investigation.
